Indigenous Artists Whose Music Is Featured in Rumble the Concert Educational Notes: INDIGENOUS ARTISTS WHOSE MUSIC IS FEATURED IN RUMBLE THE CONCERT Introduction American Indian musicians have been active in contemporary music for nearly a century. Many Native artists have had successful and influential careers in almost every form of popular music— from jazz and blues to folk, country, and rock. Some assumed the role of supporting performer, band member, or session player. Others were drawn to the limelight, and are recognized for their accomplishments in mainstream music, yet not necessarily for their American Indian heritage. Together they forged new sounds, worked with some of the greatest names in music history, and inspired both Native and non-Native performers who continue to build on their legacy. Charley Patton – Foundation of the Blues During the era of swing and jazz, there was a genre of music played in rural and regional venues that had not yet reached mainstream popularity—the blues. The blues is thought to have developed from a combination of African and Native music traditions. Many historians have traced elements of blues music, such as its shuffling beat, to Native drum rhythms and the call-and-response style of singing. Charley Patton (Choctaw/African American, 1887?–1934) was a seminal influence on the careers of Robert Johnson, Muddy Waters, and Howlin’ Wolf. He raucously played the 1920s delta roadhouse and juke joint scenes, banging on his guitar, swinging it around wildly, and even playing it behind his back. His energetic performances influenced the theatrical style of famous rock and rollers such as Jimi Hendrix. Patton died at the early age of forty-three, and with only three recordings, he is considered the “Father of the Delta Blues.” Mildred Bailey – First Lady in Big Band and Jazz Mildred Bailey (Coeur d’Alene, 1907–1951) has been praised as the first non- African American jazz singer to successfully adapt the rhythms and improvisational flavors of Dixieland and ragtime into swing jazz. Her mother, Josephine, played an integral role in her training in both mainstream and traditional Native music. However, during the golden age of radio in the 1930s and ’40s, being known as Indian was not an option. Bailey began her career as a cinema pianist in Spokane, Washington. In 1929 she was handpicked by bandleader Paul Whiteman to sing for his orchestra in Los Angeles. Best known for her memorable hit “Rockin’ Chair,” Mildred “The Rockin’ Chair Lady” Bailey was a household name by the mid-1930s. Along the way she helped her brother Al and their high school friend Bing Crosby get a foothold in the music scene. Bailey later became a bandleader, working with almost every big name in the swing era, and even hosted her own radio show—the hallmark of celebrity for bandleaders during the ’30s and ’40s. • Hosted The Mildred Bailey Variety Show in the late 1940s. • Co-hosted the 1930s radio show The Camel Caravan with Benny Goodman. • One of the first women to perform as lead vocalist for big bands such as the Paul Whiteman Orchestra and the Red Norvo Orchestra. • Hoagy Carmichael wrote the jazz standard “Rockin’ Chair” for her. Link Wray – Birth of the Power Chord Link Wray’s (Shawnee, 1929–2005) song “Rumble” climbed the sales charts to #16 in 1958. The dark, sinister quality of the tune was very different from other instrumentals heard on the airwaves, such as those by Dick Dale or Duane Eddy. Listeners could not envision the shadowy, mysterious persona sending such a grinding, distorted sound through their radios, which threatened to explode from the reverberation. The enigmatic Wray originated a raw guitar sound shaped by volume, distortion, and simple song structures that became a hallmark of rock and roll. He is almost universally credited with inventing the “power chord,” without which hard rock could not exist. He was also able to create distortion, echo, and wah-wah— staples of today’s guitar sound—without the aid of technology. Wray inspired such major rock figures as The Who’s Pete Townshend and Led Zeppelin’s Jimmy Page to explore the soundscapes that have made them rock-and-roll guitar legends. • “Rumble” was chosen for the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame’s list “500 Songs That Shaped Rock and Roll.” • “Raw-Hide,” #23, Billboard® chart, 1959 • “Rumble” appears in the 1994 Quentin Tarantino film Pulp Fiction. Robbie Robertson – Storyteller of the Shadowland Robbie Robertson (Mohawk, b. 1943) was already an accomplished songwriter and guitarist when Bob Dylan hired him and his friends to be his backup band for an upcoming tour. After Dylan went solo, Robertson and company adopted the name The Band—a moniker they were given during their time with Dylan. They went on to become a commercially successful roots-music vehicle, groundbreaking in the world of Americana for their eclectic instrumentation, purity of sound, and pop refrains sung in a unique, angelic tonality. The power of Robertson’s lyricism painted images of American settings, history, and the minor dramas of life as poignantly as a Rockwell painting for the Beat Generation—an interesting accomplishment for a Canadian-born man of Native descent. His journey from Toronto to the Six Nations Reserve—where he first heard the blues and learned his first chords—and finally to the folk and roots scene around Woodstock, New York, became the basis of his music for the next thirty-five years. • Performed with Bob Dylan during his famous 1966 world tour, when he went from playing acoustic to electric. • Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductee with The Band, 1994 • Grammy nominations, Robbie Robertson, 1987, and Storyville, 1991 • Grammy Award, Producer of the Year, Contact from the Underworld of Redboy, 2005 • Presented the Lifetime Achievement Award in 1997 from the Academy of Songwriters. • The Band was given a star-studded farewell by such artists as Eric Clapton, Bob Dylan, Joni Mitchell, and Neil Young in the 1978 film The Last Waltz. Robertson co-produced the film with director Martin Scorsese. Buffy Sainte-Marie – A Universal Soldier Buffy Sainte-Marie (Cree, b. 1941 or 1942) is one of the greatest folk singers of the ’60s. She developed her unique folk style in college cafes and later as a member of the Greenwich Village circle that included Peter La Farge and Bob Dylan. Her commemorative ballads of Native history and its hard truths carried on in La Farge’s tradition, and her social commentary during the Vietnam War era with songs such as “Universal Soldier” earned her attention as a notable voice of conscience. Sainte-Marie’s reputation for edgy, socially provocative material was paralleled by her success as a writer of unforgettable love songs recorded by established performers such as Elvis Presley, Roberta Flack, and Celine Dion. She has lent her unmistakable voice to film and television roles, and influenced a variety of contemporary artists, from the folksy Indigo Girls to alternative rockers Sonic Youth. • 1982 Academy Award winner for Best Song “Up Where We Belong” • “Until It’s Time for You to Go,” written by Sainte-Marie, has been recorded by Elvis Presley, Cher, and Barbra Streisand, among many others. • Three Billboard Hot 100® hits in 1972. Jesse Ed Davis – Guitarist to the Greats Jesse Ed Davis (Kiowa/Comanche, 1944–1988) grew up in a family of musicians in Norman, Oklahoma, where he was very conscious of the racial boundaries that made him feel “a little weird being Indian,” especially when it came to pursuing rock and roll. He first hit the road as Conway Twitty’s guitarist, but he later became the lead guitarist for Taj Mahal, who brought authentic, bluesy rock to a more mainstream audience. Over the next fifteen years, Davis became one of the most sought- after session players for some of the biggest names in pop music, including Ringo Starr, Jackson Browne, Rod Stewart, Keith Moon, Helen Reddy, Eric Clapton, and George Harrison. His closest collaborator though, both personally and professionally, was John Lennon, with whom Davis played on four projects between 1974 and 1984, including the Lennon/Elton John number-one hit “Whatever Gets You through the Night.” “It was my pleasure and privilege to play with Jesse Ed Davis. He was a really fine musician. Peace and love.” —Ringo Starr • Performed with George Harrison at the Concert for Bangladesh. • Guitarist, “Whatever Gets You through the Night,” John Lennon and Elton John, #1, Billboard® chart, 1975 • Guitarist, “Doctor, My Eyes,” Jackson Browne, Billboard Top 10® single, 1972 • Guitarist, “Tonight's the Night,” Rod Stewart, 1976 • Guitarist on Eric Clapton’s album No Reason to Cry, 1976. • Guitarist on George Harrison’s album Extra Texture, 1976. • Guitarist on Neil Diamond’s album Beautiful Noise, 1976. .

  • The Gays in This Gay Press Exclusive, Queen Bey Talks Being Inspired by Her Gay Fans, Loving Lady Gaga and Remaking ‘A Star Is Born’
    Beyoncé ‘4’ The Gays In this gay press exclusive, Queen Bey talks being inspired by her gay fans, loving Lady Gaga and remaking ‘A Star Is Born’ BY CHRIS AZZOPARDI f there’s any girl who runs the world, it’s Beyoncé. The reigning diva – she’s called Queen Bey for a reason, people – is one of the biggest and best voices behind a long run of hits dating back to the late ’90s, when she was part of Isupreme girl-group Destiny’s Child. Years later, Beyoncé still demonstrates just how irreplaceable she is as a solo artist, having released four albums – and dedicating her latest one, “4,” to that milestone – with some of the most memorable and gay-celebrated singles in pop music history. Not every artist can say they’ve had a gay boy lead a football team to glory by performing “Single Ladies,” as seen on “Glee.” And not every artist can say they have 16 Grammy Awards, making her one of the most honored artists in Grammy history. But that’s Queen Bey, who’s also assembled a gaggle of gay fans who are – you guessed it – crazy in love with her. In this exclusive chat with Beyoncé, her first gay press interview since 2006, the singer/actress/glamour-girl spoke about how the fierceness of her gay fans inspires her, the intimidation she’s feeling following in the footsteps of Judy and Barbra for her upcoming role in “A Star Is Born,” and what she really meant by the “girls” who run the world.

Cherokee This essay takes as its case study the Cherokee Nation of Oklahoma’s 2007 vote to disenfranchise approximately 2,800 Cherokee Freedmen (African-Cherokee Freedmen descendents of slaves once held by members of the Cherokee Nation) in violation of the treaty the Cherokee Nation signed with the United States in 1866 to end internal the Civil War. Arguing that indigenous sovereignty and political status is colonialism incommensurable with the ‘internal’ to the United States, the essay provides a racialization genealogy of ‘internal colonialism’ in order to track how it has emerged as descriptor within postcolonial theory for indigenous peoples’ relations with the settler United States.

    The ASCAP Foundation Newsflash! ~ Newsflash! ~ Newsflash! Making Music Grow since 1975 Notations Fall/Winter 2010 Barbara and John LoFrumento Establish A Program to Assist Autistic Students ASCAP CEO John LoFrumento and his wife Barbara, have established The ASCAP Foundation Barbara and John LoFrumento Award to support music and music therapy programs for autistic learners. This award, which was recently presented to the Music Conservatory of Westchester Music Therapy Institute, will enable the Institute to expand its music therapy program and provide weekly music therapy sessions to special needs students in the Eastchester, NY school district. Students will have the opportunity to work with music educators on songwriting and instrumental instruction. Music therapy uses the power of music in a focused way to accomplish growth, learning, healing and change. Elements of music such as repetition, form, dynamics, tempo and rhythm specifically address the learning needs of children with autism creating an environment of attention, creativity and expression. The ASCAP Foundation Barbara and John LoFrumento Award will make it possible for the Institute to reach out to those in the community who might otherwise not have an opportunity to experience music and its healing abilities. For those children, music therapy will make a significant difference in Barbara and John LoFrumento their lives by addressing important areas including communication and language development, socialization, emotional development and self expression, as well as helping to develop their musical skills and talents. The ASCAP Foundation Joe Raposo Children’s Music Award To honor his legacy, the family of Joe Raposo has established The ASCAP Foundation Joe Raposo Children’s Music Award, which will support emerging talent in the area of children’s music.

  • Eric Clapton
    ERIC CLAPTON BIOGRAFIA Eric Patrick Clapton nasceu em 30/03/1945 em Ripley, Inglaterra. Ganhou a sua primeira guitarra aos 13 anos e se interessou pelo Blues americano de artistas como Robert Johnson e Muddy Waters. Apelidado de Slowhand, é considerado um dos melhores guitarristas do mundo. O reconhecimento de Clapton só começou quando entrou no “Yardbirds”, banda inglesa de grande influência que teve o mérito de reunir três dos maiores guitarristas de todos os tempos em sua formação: Eric Clapton, Jeff Beck e Jimmy Page. Apesar do sucesso que o grupo fazia, Clapton não admitia abandonar o Blues e, em sua opinião, o Yardbirds estava seguindo uma direção muito pop. Sai do grupo em 1965, quando John Mayall o convida a juntar-se à sua banda, os “Blues Breakers”. Gravam o álbum “Blues Breakers with Eric Clapton”, mas o relacionamento com Mayall não era dos melhores e Clapton deixa o grupo pouco tempo depois. Em 1966, forma os “Cream” com o baixista Jack Bruce e o baterista Ginger Baker. Com a gravação de 4 álbuns (“Fresh Cream”, “Disraeli Gears”, “Wheels Of Fire” e “Goodbye”) e muitos shows em terras norte americanas, os Cream atingiram enorme sucesso e Eric Clapton já era tido como um dos melhores guitarristas da história. A banda separa-se no fim de 1968 devido ao distanciamento entre os membros. Neste mesmo ano, Clapton a convite de seu amigo George Harisson, toca na faixa “While My Guitar Gently Weeps” do White Album dos Beatles. Forma os “Blind Faith” em 1969 com Steve Winwood, Ginger Baker e Rick Grech, que durou por pouco tempo, lançando apenas um album.

    EDITION #20 – September 2008 SPECIAL "SHADOZ" ISSUE!! "Shadoz 2008" marked our 6th anniversary, as well as the 50th anniversary of Cliff and The Shadows. Yet another new venue, and, from all reports the best yet. On a sad note, we recently lost one of our Shadoz friends, Don Hill. Don played drums for Harry's Webb and The Vikings last year, and was one of the 'stalwarts' of Shadoz in recent times. R.I.P. Don. TONY KIEK (Keyboards) and GEORGE LEWIS (Guitar) were fresh from a tour of the UK, where they appeared at a number of Shadows clubs. They were gracious enough to help out by filling the 'dreaded' opening spot. Their set was a wonderful introduction to the day, and they featured some great sounds with WONDERFUL LAND / FANDANGO (with WALTZING MATILDA intro) / DANCES WITH WOLVES / THING-ME-JIG / RODRIGO'S CONCERTO / GOING HOME (THEME FROM 'LOCAL HERO') / THE SAVAGE / SPRING IS NEARLY HERE Whilst Tony and George travelled down from Sydney, no less a feat were the next band, who have travelled from overseas – Phillip Island! - ROB WATSON (Bass) was formerly with Melbourne group "The Avengers", TONY MERCER (Lead Guitar) also played with various Melbourne groups before "retiring" to the island and forming "SHAZAM", MIKE McCABE (Rhythm) worked in England in the 60's with "Hardtack", MARTY SAUNDERS (Drums) played with the popular showband "Out To Lunch" amongst others, and JEFF CULLEN (Lead vocals and rhythm guitar) sang with The Aztecs in Sydney before Billy Thorpe, then with The Rat Finks. A nice mix of Shads and non-Shads numbers included ADVENTURES IN PARADISE / MAN OF MYSTERY / ATLANTIS / THE CRUEL SEA / THE RISE AND FALL OF FLINGEL BUNT / GENIE WITH THE LIGHT BROWN LAMP / IT'S A MAN'S WORLD / THE SAVAGE / CINCINNATTI FIREBALL (voc) / LOVE POTION NO.9 (voc) / THE WANDERER (voc) / THE STRANGER / WALK DON'T RUN One of the joys of "Shadoz" is the ability to welcome newcomers to our shindig.
